824 - Les Feldick Bible Study - Lesson 2 Part 4 Book 69 - Kinsman Redeemer - Part 4

https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 2 * PART 4 * BOOK 69 KINSMAN REDEEMER – PART 4 Revelation 5; Ruth; I Corinthians 15: 1-4 Okay, once again we want to let our television audience know how much we appreciate especially your prayers on our behalf as well as on our daughter’s. My, she stays in such a good mood. When strangers come in, they can’t figure out how she could be so upbeat. Her answer constantly is – I’ve got a million people praying for me. We appreciate so much that you keep praying for her as well for us. And for your financial help as well. We thank you for every dollar that comes in. I don’t care if it’s a single dollar bill. We thank the Lord for it. Okay, we’re going to take this half hour, which sort of came up with not enough time to go into a whole new field of study. We’re still in book 69. We’ve got to be aware of that and try to keep our subject matter as much as we can within a certain book. So, we’re going to look at the plan of salvation that I feel is so often totally misunderstood. It’s so misrepresented. There are precious few people anymore that are actually proclaiming the Gospel by which we are saved. Now what made me think of it? I had a gentleman call not too long ago, who came out of one of the big denominations. He came to know the Lord through our program and got a love for the Word. He called one day and he said, “Les, I went back to my old denominational church and I asked my people that I’d grown up with, “Tell me. What is the Gospel?” He said, “They looked at me with a blank stare and then finally somebody said, well, the Bible.” The Bible? Well, yes, the Bible contains the Gospel, but that’s not the Gospel. Then others said, “Well, you’ve got to be baptized and join the church.” No, that’s not the Gospel. We hear it from various areas of the world and the country that people just do not really know what the Gospel is. Unbelievable! As I’ve said over and over, here in I Corinthians 15 where we’re going to look now for a moment is the most clearly defined statement of the Gospel in the Bible, and nobody uses it. I shouldn’t say nobody, but few. They’ll use everything and anything but. That’s why I thought, well, maybe this half-hour came up the way it did for a Divine purpose, like we saw in the Book of Ruth. Everything is by Divine purpose. All right, let’s start in I Corinthians 15 verse 1. It turns out to be the great resurrection chapter. Here’s the way it starts in verse 1. I Corinthians 15:1a “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel….” Now what does that mean? How many are there? One! That’s what I want you to see. It’s not “a” (one of many), but rather there is only one. Now, just because I teach two Gospels for a little while back in the Book of Acts, when God was still dealing with Israel, people have got the crazy, misconstrued notion that I proclaim two Gospels today. No! Never! Yes, there were two Gospels for a littl
